Read the fine print before you book your ride, as rules may differ between rental car providers. Keep in mind that if you’re planning to rent a specialty vehicle or a large car like a premium SUV, drivers may need to be older than 21.
What do you need to rent a car in San José?
The main requirements are your driver’s license and a credit card in the same name. Many car rental companies will offer you insurance, which is optional. But you may have to provide proof of other coverage if you opt out. Make sure you check with your home provider to avoid any problems.
What side of the road do you drive on in San José?
In San José and around Argentina, motorists drive on the right-hand side of the road. While this is the same as in the States, you’ll need to be mindful of any different traffic rules.
Can I rent a car for a month or longer in San José?
Yes, so you won’t have to rebook a home vehicle halfway through your holiday. Click through to our long-term car rental deals page, enter your trip details and find a set of wheels to call your own for the duration of your getaway.
Where can I find a San José car rental if I am younger than 25?
Whether or not you can rent a vehicle if you are under 25 in San José often depends on the holiday home supplier you choose. Some businesses have a surcharge for young customers between 21 and 24 years old, but other companies may not have any extra fees for this age bracket. It’d be wise to understand the terms and conditions of your selected holiday home dealer to escape any surprise charges when collecting your car.
